Fresh Collier County Fishing Reports

Its been awesome fishing!! This month has been Super!! Everyday we have been catchin g Mangrove Snappers,Snook, Goliath Groupers, Pompano , Sailcats , Ruby Lipped Grunts and Tarpon to name a few! Book your trip while some dates are still available! Captain Rio??

Summer time protocol is underway in Naples, FL. Hot temps, scattered thunderstorms and hungry fish will be the trend for the coming months. June fishing has been phenomenal so far and is one of our favorite months of the year for a reason. Permit fishing has been epic with large aggressive schools of fish being a common occurrence. They tend to move around more this time of the year but once you get on them it's go time. There have been a few Cobia around offshore as well and are always a welcome guest while we are out Permit fishing. In terms of inshore fishing Snook has been the star of the show. The Snook bite has been incredible with activity out of them wherever we choose to fish them. Whether it be in the backcountry, the pass, the beach or even nearshore wrecks. The Tarpon migration is still underway as well with good numbers of fish swimming the beach. This is bucket list trophy fish time of the year and the On a Mission team is out there grinding in the heat making it happen on a daily basis. We have a few dates available in June and some in July. Please reach out with any questions!

Bait is finally showing up and the fish are biting good! Mangrove Snappers, Snook, Pompano,Goliath Groupers, Redfish just to name a few. So...book your trip with me, For a good time catching fish. Captain Rio??

Tarpon and Permit fishing is on! The last few days the bait schools have pushed in and the saying find the bait and you find the fish is sure accurate ! After waiting all spring and a colder winter the have arrived , oh by the way the wind is finally calming down!

Kicking off the month of May exactly how it should start with sight fishing big Permit and Tarpon. This is the best time of the year to target these bucket list game fish and this is primetime to catch both of them in the same day. We have strong numbers of Tarpon migrating our beaches and there are massive schools of Permit offshore. These two fish will be our main emphasis over the next couple of months but that doesn't mean there aren't other options as well. There have still been some straggler Cobia hanging out offshore which has been nice while we look for Permit. Most of the wrecks offshore are also littered with Amberjacks which are fun to tease and throw artificial baits at. These are also great fly targets for any avid fly fishermen. Closeby there are great numbers of Snook inshore and nearshore. They're gearing up for their annual spawn and will be very hungry as we progress into summer. Our water clarity has been about as good as it gets which makes for some awesome sight fishing on all of the previous listed species. This is the peak time of the year for sport fishing in our area! We are looking forward to many great trips with all of our clients. Reach out to any of us with any questions you may have. Happy fishing!
